That would be very welcome: we (the Italian N-L Project) do not approve all with/without JRE versions, and this fallback mechanism would help a lot. Every Italian Linux user visiting, for example, http://download.openoffice.org/index.html is now being redirected to download a build that does not exist since we haven't approved it yet; while with this mechanism in place, he would get the non-JRE version which we did approve.
